Silicon Valley is bursting with boba tea places these days, and the quality varies. One of the newest boba, or bubble, tea shops is in Mountain View, and Yelpers seem to agree that it's a true standout. Tea Annie opened its doors just over a month ago and it's still getting its footing, but guests have been raving about the friendly service, reasonable prices, and the taste, texture, and variety of the teas here. Given that it's not far from Brookside Park — about two miles — it would be easy for you to check it out for yourself.

Some of the specialties at Annie's include the popular Oreo Cookie milk tea, the orange green tea, and the taro milk tea, all described by guests as well-balanced and bursting with flavor; sweet, but not too sweet. You can enjoy your tea with a pastry or a sandwich, and either sit in the cozy dining area, at an outdoor table, or get your goodies to go!
